Nitto NT421Q

The Bottom Line

The Nitto NT421Q is well-suited for drivers seeking a comfortable and quiet ride with a solid 60,000-mile warranty. However, its wet grip may not be the best in class, making it less ideal for consistently rainy climates.

Important Note

Wet grip performance may not be sufficient for those frequently driving in heavy rain, where alternatives like the Michelin MXV3-A could perform better.
